I have to double check to see if theres any point of the Kings winning tomorrow to get up to 8th.

a couple of burning questions: can the Blazers manage to lose this critical game

will the Blazers end up in sole possession of 4th in the lottery or will Popovich and the Spurs shamelessly lose to the worst team in the league. Report is that Wembayana won't play tomorrow; neither will Vassell, Sochan, Osman, and Johnson

it's a stare-down between the Blazers and Spurs for which team can put more G-leaguers on the floor

What happens if both Blazers and Spurs lose does it go to tiebreakers? Or do they split the #1 odds or something?

Closer to Ron Holland/Knecht or Clingan - now it gets exciting.

Sacramento Kings: No. 8 seed with win over Blazers combined with loss by Lakers. No. 9 seed with win over Blazers combined with win by Lakers, or loss combined with loss by Warriors. No. 10 seed with loss to Blazers combined with win by Warriors.

It's always best to be in 8th place for theoretically, they'd only have to win one game to
advance to the first round

Scoot is out with hip soreness? Did something happen last game or is that what they're listing just to sit him out?

the odds for 4th & 5th are aggregated, then split 2 ways

for instance for pick #1, the math is 12.5+10.5/2 = 11.5%

but right now, it looks like it might be Charlotte and Portland sharing the odds for 3rd and 4th

Yes this day went about as well as it could have from a lotto perspective provided portland loses and san Antonio wins. Both look likely currently

Is Kris Murray a player you guys like? Is he even a fraction of his brothers skill? Haven't seen him play at all

A late first round pick he seems to me to have the potential to be a solid rotation player if he can shoot consistently well. Good rebounder and defender but as noted needs to work on his shooting.
